Morgon Corcelette, Domaine des Versauds

Producer

This venerable property dates back to 1736 and is today in the hands of the Marmonnier family, descendants of the original owners.

Vineyard

The grapes come from forty-five to fifty year-old vines planted in the revered Corcelette lieu-dit, located to the north-west of the village of Morgon. The vineyard is south-facing and planted on granite and schist soils, and is farmed according to the principles of lutte raisonnée.

Winery

The must underwent a temperature controlled fermentation at 25-30ºC, with a maceration period of eight to ten days. The wine then underwent full malolactic fermentation and was bottled unoaked.
